Shir Khan Presents Welt Am Draht - a collection of Exploited dancefloor gold from 2024! 'Sex!' by duo Modular Project rolls out a neat and classy groove as the sturdy bones of a Disco beat thump under a snake-hip bass, serrated acid line and bold, unfiltered piano chords. Bearing flecks of Krautrock, Indie, Electronica and Funk, Made In TLV's 'Super Cool' is an anthem that traverses vast sonic territory. Diar Storm, Lost Boy 1984, Play Paul present a modern form of Dark Wave Electro that is, equal parts stroppy and sexy. 'Everything So' emits cathartic steam as vibrant synths burst with bittersweet chords and jagged staccato tones. 'Tainted In The Sun' by Niv Ast kicks off with a Manchester chorus beaming out over stroppy power chords. Gary Numan’s cross-continental hit 'Cars' from 1979 has been covered, sampled and reworked from vastly different pockets of the industry. Now - Laroz presents a rejuvenation of ’Cars’. 'Infinity' by Budakid is a journey in the truest sense of the word. Through an effervescent bass sequence, clever filter control and kinetic drum work, Budakid generates consistent motion from start to finish. 'Falling For You' by Komilev dials in that Panorama vibe packed with effervescent drama, soul and sass. 'Rompe Disco’ by Alex Medina bumps like House and glistens like an Italo whilst also exuding the moxie of Reggaeton.  'Foreign Affairs' by Micropacer follows with more early 80s flair.  Pole Position of Brunch In The Park Barcelona fame channel their complementary energies into 'Diamonds'; a recording inspired by Electro House that deftly straddles 80s New Wave, Prog and Indie. Moodymanc's 'Joy' twists Philadelphia soul sounds into a peak time house monster. Now re-edited for modern times in a special Breakbeat version.  São Paulo based Renato Cohen fires up his arsenal of analogue gear and adds a bright and burly Italo cut with ’Lemon Key’. Zeynep Erbay’s ’Neon Palm’ sits comfortably alongside modern Indie Dance, Italo Disco and House alike.  Slump Recordings boss Baby Rollén’s ’Feeling Mumbled’ Remix is an ultimately playable DJ tool; one that renders an after hours sunrise as chords bounce of the tracks surface like rays of light while tight, nifty shuffles interlock with a bouncing bass line.  Austin Ato fleshes out some deliciously hallucinogenic Italo synths in his Remix version of ’Super Cool’ by Made In TLV. ’Acid Infatuation’ by Levantine is a sound that occupies a sweet spot between Eurodance and Italo.  Black Hawks of Panama steps in with ’Wrapped’.The ingredients are simple: a slapping disco kit, Alpha Juno, zesty guitar licks and an anthemic vocal. The result is a contagious Italo march that burrows deep under the skin; put simply - a slice of pure rapture. 'Good Times' by Renato Cohen sparks things up with bright, muscular drums that pave the way for a rasping bass line - a killer DJ tool. Raw energy is spat out while snares clash and vocals march along with an intensity that doesn't let up.  Captain Mustache’s ’Diavola’ flexes low-mid tones warble in lock step with strapping drums and an earworm synth line. ’Heart Life' by NEAT adds a further facet to the compilation with an allaying Italo-tinged groove.  In ’Neonim’ by Laroz, a gently jagged bass line bubbles away, creating a buoyant bed for expertly crafted drums which pop out with expressive alacrity. Dulcet piano tones form a bond with amber-tinged synths as warming soundscape is developed. James Curd throws a dart straight to the dance floor with the jazz-tinged House jam ’Feeling Mumbled’ built from a classy palette of samples.  Sandhog closes the album with the highly memorable recording 'Berlin' that speaks to the power of simplicity.

James Curd - Feeling Mumbled (Exploited)

Originally released in 2021, this record was re-released on Industry Standard on vinyl back in June 2024. A well deserved re-press of an iconic original from Todd Modes. Now we bring you this package digitally.

Along side Todd's deeply hypnotic original, featuring the slick vocals of PRLZ, Boss man Oliver Dollar steps up to create a remix that takes the track to a smoother deep house territory than the heads down original.

Here comes a first EP by Josh Ludlow for Toy Tonics. Mastermind of Make a Dance aka M.A.D records. London’s best kept secret (or not so secret anymore) of new underground dance weapons that are played by everybody who counts in the scene. 

Josh delivers a hot 4-tracker that will move people on dance floors worldwide. Combining 1990ies filter house influences, 2000s indie dance and some of the edgy contemporary funk moods that are lighting up clubs these days. The post - techno generation likes it funky, and Josh delivers. Fitting perfectly with the vibe of Toy Tonics, this EP will find a lot of friends. In fact, Josh knows how things work. 

Josh Ludlow has been steadily honing his craft over the past 15 years. Starting out releasing Drum & Bass under the ‘Squash!’ moniker in the late 2000s whilst also playing drums in bands. The former gave way to live touring, and it was only in 2020 when Josh resurfaced with some new electronic music. 

The impetus for releasing this new material was when Josh Ludlow & Ben Lewis formed their beloved project ‘Make A Dance’ (which then went on to establish the imprint), M.A.D Records during the pandemic.
Since then M.A.D have made a big impact on the underground scene, become regulars at places such as Fabric, Heideglühen, Gottwood and gained DJ support of people such as Laurent Garnier, Optimo, Palms Trax and Peggy Gou and across BBC Radio1 and regularly cover show’s on NTS for Long Running Host’s Moxie and Apiento.

This is just the beginning.

Bazar - Hard to Find ( Maceo Plex)

Back on the Riotvan with the third installment already, it is the ever on point https://soundcloud.com/llewellynmusic, still being the more extroverted Synth/Wave/NeoDisco-alter ego of Lake People - that just as a minor gloss for those who've been living under a rock over the last years. On "These Days" we see him further elaborate his distinctive signature sound, more than ever brimming with confidence and splendour. 

Exhibit A goes by the name "These Days (Don't Make Me Wait)" and instantly wins over the hearts of listeners and dancers alike by its driving, yet utmost elegant appearance. A slapping beat and dream-like pads get played about by a delightful piano improvisation and refined by amazement-triggering adlibs and vocal-excerpts. There you have it: the Indie-Dance-hymn of the season, bathing open air floors everywhere in streams of joy and collective rapture.

Then there is "I Wish I Could Have Seen It All" that in all detail emphasizes on classy Italo Disco-leanings, without compromising on current standards of production craftsmanship and all the requirements to get a crowd moving. That irresistible Funk driven synthbass just being one of them.

Closing things off, it's "Fleshed Out", presenting hissy snares, hi-hat-teasing plus a slightly off-beat arrangement, introducing a stardust powdered lead arpeggio synth and a plain compelling boost of energy and driving dynamic.
